one; video/action for new bark town
video;
[ The first thing the video shows is not a face. Rather, it's a blue-looking mess of fabric, scraping back and forth across the screen. When it pulls back, it's shown to be a sleeve - specifically, one used to clean off the spit Minato's brand-new Gastly had decided to coat his screen with.
Because that's what you do. You lick things when you don't know what they are. He looks up at his Gastly with a tired expression. It cackles, then goes back to floating around and taking in the sights. ]
...hi. [ He pauses, long enough to make it seem like he's done. Minato looks away from the screen to the town around him: small, quaint, but peaceful. ] It looks like a lot of people arrived here...and they all got these new animals.
[ Or Shadows, as far as he's concerned. Still, having not left yet, nothing has attacked him. Just...licked him, pushing some of his blue bangs back off his face to reveal both eyes. ]
My name's Minato. Is this...supposed to happen?
action;
[ Is that good enough? That's good enough. He shuts off the video with a sigh and looks around again, stuffing his hands and device in his pockets.
Not only is this not his first visit to a new dimension, it's not even his first visit this month. Rather than worried or scared, he just looks tired. Glancing around provides him with a bench, just near the Pokemon Lab; he saunters over there and drops down, slouching into the seat.
On cue, his stomach gurgles. He sets a hand over it and frowns briefly. ]
...wonder if there's burgers around here.

[ That sounds suspicious. Like some final antagonist for later in the plot. He frowns, looking away from the camera, and files that away for later pondering. ]
Yeah. But if most people are, that's fine. [ Hmm. He looks back at the camera, pushing his hair briefly out of his eyes. ] How are you finding it?

He looks back and nods. ]
Mm. It'll be fun once I get on the road and meet more.
no subject
Yeah, there are a bunch between there and Cherrygrove. Also it's a three day hike to the next city...so hope you like camping.
no subject
[ Cry. There won't even be fast food outlets on that trail! ]
no subject
It's not a bad hike. [If that helps at all.] And the city you end up in is really nice. It has a spa and a diner.
no subject
Ah...a diner?
[ Food senses: activated. ]

But the diner was first place I went once I got into Cherrygrove, after meeting my friends, of course. We all ordered different things and shared. I think I liked the cheeseburger best, but their pancakes were really good. They also have a bunch of milkshake flavors. [It's not really that many compared to other places, but like she said, she has no frame of reference.] I got chocolate and added strawberries to it.
But really everything was good.

[ And it all sounds so good...had he not just stuffed himself with his packed lunch, his stomach might growl. ]
I'll have to get there really soon. Are you still with your friends?
